"The ZigZag [Education] topic on a page for GCSE AQA Geography provides an illustrated mind map which summarises the knowledge required for each unit of the specification on an A3 page. There is scope to customise by cutting and sticking the [range of] different case studies onto the mind map. The judges felt that this was a visually engaging, timely resource which would be particularly useful for revision and identifying synoptic links between concepts and topics. Overall, a well-structured resource suitable for GCSE students of all abilities."

What do teachers say about this resource? (7663)

Fantastic ... It combines so much detail in a format that will not overwhelm students. I like the mix of the visual and summary information ... Makes the information they have to learn look manageable ... It is a low cost option - students can be given a copy and if it gets lost it can be replaced. Students can be given the mind map with the case study info missing , they would need to complete this

H Roberts, Customer (previous edition)

A really excellent way of revising key topics... Particularly liked how much information is fitted onto one diagram - Perfect for revision of key topics

H. Girvan, Teacher & Peer Reviewer

I particularly like this resource because it accessed all levels in bite size chunks... they could use it in many ways, i.e. cut out, colour in - put in to books at key points... this is an easy cost and effective way to get relevant information across

J. Wilkinson, HoD & Customer

What do teachers say about this resource? (7664)

A great resource. Reassures me of the topics being covered. The [case studies] mix and match ensures almost all examples are covered. I like the differentiated sheets and that high ability can start their own. Definitely worth the money as 1 resource fits all case studies and the templates allow you to build your own or students to build their own.
